Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

In January 1945, the weather in Italy was very cold. Fang Lang and the soldiers stood outside the camp, shivering from the cold. However, Fang Lang did not order the team to disband. Instead, they started their first battle directly outside the barracks.

A self-introduction, because Fang Lang knew that he was too young, almost everyone in the team was older than him, and judging from the military rank, there were two second lieutenants, so Fang Lang had to introduce himself when they first met.

Establish a strict image of yourself.

These are what everyone calls the three things a new officer should do when he takes office. Fang Lang knows very well that authority is very important in the army. You must let everyone understand who has the final say here.

Fang Lang stood at attention and saluted, and the team also saluted neatly. After the salute, Fang Lang began to speak for the first time: "Have a rest, hello brothers! I am the captain of this newly formed transport ship. My name is Fang Lang.

.Thank you all for welcoming me in the cold wind. From now on, we will fight on the same boat. I hope to get acquainted with you first. Next, starting from the vanguard on my right, I will introduce myself one by one.

I need to know your name, years of service, service experience and position on the ship! Do you understand?"

"Understood!" uniform cheers came from the team. Apparently, the Americans' training of the free-spirited Brazilians was very effective. Although the team's stance and military appearance and discipline were definitely not comparable to the army in Fang Lang's mind,

But it is already much stricter than Brazil's domestic army.

"Then let's start!" After hearing everyone's answers, Fang Lang ordered to start directly.

"Report, my name is Feodor de la Torre. I have served in the Navy for eight years. I was the first mate of the destroyer Marsilo Diaz before being transferred. I am now your first mate." The first one.

The person who introduced him made Fang Lang stunned. How could a destroyer's first mate be sent to such a transport ship as the first mate? This is equivalent to being sent to the frontier!

"Report, my name is Noro Roberto Fundis. I have served for two years. I come from the Logistics Department. I am now serving as your second mate." This person is obviously a related person and was inserted by the Logistics Department. Someone from the logistics department came over to be the second mate.

Isn't this nonsense? Fang Lang didn't even think about how he was not a more important person in the minds of these crew members! At such a young age, an army sergeant who was less than 20 years old suddenly became the captain of a naval transport ship.

Captain, the Americans also specified that he must be the captain. This is not a related party, what is a related party.

Of course, the backend of his relationship is a Yankee, and now the Yankee is the father of a Brazilian, so no one dares to have any objections.

"Report, my name is Amar Reina. I have served for two years. Before joining the service, I was the chief engineer of a transport ship. Now I am your chief engineer." Finally, a normal crew member came.

"Report, my name is Cruzere Duarte. I have served for three years. I was the infantry squad leader of the 11th Army Regiment. I am now your guard squad leader." There is another colleague here, but the guard squad leader he refers to is not the guard squad leader.

Although Fang Lang's guards are also responsible for part of Fang Lang's security work, this class is mainly used to use defensive weapons such as anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-submarine guns on the ship to protect the ship from being attacked by German aircraft or submarines.

Shen's guard force.

The remaining crew members are basically sailors and soldiers, which is not beyond Fang Lang's expectation. Most of these crew members are personnel transferred from various ships of the Navy, and some even have only working experience on inland river ships. However, it is possible to have a person who has worked on inland river ships.

Fang Lang was very pleasantly surprised by the experience of working on a destroyer as a first mate.

Although Fang Lang knew that this person might have been sent here, or that he might be a reserve personnel arranged by the Brazilian Navy because he was worried that Fang Lang would not be able to use the transport ship, Fang Lang didn't care at all. Now with Fang Lang's relationship with the US military, the Brazilian Navy

I don't dare to change Fang Lang's position. So if Fang Lang can use such a person well, Fang Lang will be very relaxed.

Finally, everyone finished introducing themselves, and Fang Lang began to summarize: "Very good. Although we come from different services, different departments, and have different experiences, I hope that everyone can seize the time to get familiar with each other and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

Our superiors only gave us one week to adapt to the new job. This afternoon I will confirm the situation of our ships with the US military. Tomorrow morning we will officially receive the ships and start our crew career. I hope that since everyone is on the same page

On the ship, we must unite as one, overcome difficulties and cross the German blockade together to complete the tasks assigned to us by our superiors. Do you have the confidence!"

"have!"

"The voice is too low, I can't hear clearly!" Fang Lang stared at these soldiers coldly. Although he could hear their replies, he obviously could not hear their confidence in the responses.

"Yes!" The voice finally became a little more uniform and a little louder.

"Are you girls? The voices of so many people are not loud enough for me! Answer me loudly, do you have the confidence?" What Fang Lang needs is the soldiers shouting with all their strength.

Finally, the soldiers tried their best one by one. The veins on their necks bulged, and they shouted loudly with red faces and thick necks: "Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"Very good! Remember this feeling. Whether you are talking or doing something, you must try your best. My ears are not very good, so when you answer my questions in the future, please maintain your status today." Of course Fang Lang would not.

He has bad ears. After the fusion of memories from two lifetimes, his body has doubled its memory, physical fitness and spirit. In particular, his body is much stronger than before, and the muscles on his body are bulging.

The increased strength made Fang Lang feel that he could easily defeat ten enemies.

"Stand at attention! Everyone is here. Except for the first mate who stayed behind, the rest of the personnel returned to the camp to rest. Disband." Hearing Fang Lang's announcement of disbandment, the soldiers, who were shivering in the cold wind, dispersed in a rush. This made

Fang Lang was very dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything else. After all, this was the Brazilian army.

"Hello, Mr. de la Torre, it's a pleasure to work with you." Fang Lang extended a hand of friendship to his first mate. The first mate is a blond, blue-eyed, bearded white man. He is not tall and looks at his age.

Lang felt that he was at least thirty-eight or nineteen years old, which was the time when he was in the prime of life.

The first mate also extended his hand to shake Fang Lang's hand and said in a solemn tone: "Hello, Mr. Captain, it is an honor to serve as the first mate on your ship."

Fang Lang was not polite and said straight to the point: "Mr. First Mate, please forgive me for being presumptuous. I am very curious about how you would agree to serve as the First Mate on my transport ship based on your resume?"

Maybe most foreigners are relatively straightforward people, or maybe de la Torre himself had already expected that he would be asked this question. So he also said slightly embarrassed: "Mr. Captain, because my family conditions are not good enough."

Well, every month’s income is sent home, so I don’t have money to give gifts.”

The first mate's answer made Fang Lang stunned. He didn't react. If he has no money, he will be transferred from the destroyer to the transport ship? What kind of bullshit reason is this? You should find a more reliable reason to lie! But, look

Looking at the serious expression on the first mate's face, Fang Lang felt that he was not lying to him.

It took me a long time to realize that I was in Brazil! At this time, corruption was prevalent in Brazil, and the government was authoritarian. If the lower-level officers did not provide enough benefits to their superiors, they would not be promoted.

Hopefully, phenomena like de la Torre's will become very common.

"I understand, Mr. First Mate, so first of all I have to tell you that I don't care about other places, but on my ship I don't allow you to charge the benefits of the crew below, and you don't have to give me benefits. I will give you a fixed military salary.

In addition, you will be given certain cash rewards based on your work performance. My request is very simple. I hope that everyone can devote all their energy to work and improve their work ability. If you have the ability

If it's enough, I will give you enough power and enough income to support your family. Do you understand what I mean?" Fang Lang said seriously to the first mate, already thinking that maybe he had found a way to cultivate himself

The direction of power.

"Mr. Captain, are you serious?" De La Torre stared at Fang Lang with a look of shock and expectation.

"Of course, don't worry! It's my job to generate income, and what you have to do is to help me manage the crew, and pay close attention to training to build a tacit understanding among the crew. I hope I can have a combat-effective ship,

If you can satisfy me, you will get an additional allowance of no less than one hundred dollars from me every month." Fang Lang affirmatively patted the first mate's arm and promised seriously!
